Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students love to paint! And I love giving them opportunities to create that directly link to the things we are learning in class. We have Black history month and Women's History month coming up, as well as a unit on life cycles, that all lend themselves well to be extended with painting!

Giving to our project will supply my kiddos with the materials needed to explore and deepen their learning through art!

I've also included a ladder to help me hang their masterpieces around the room! :-) Thank you so much for considering our class!
